Foreign Exchange is the largest capital market in the world.

We believe we can make it even bigger.

JOIN FXCH. CLEAR DIFFERENT.

Message from the CEO

Many young and promising FinTech firms have elected to use technology as a means to provide consumer benefits and fairer access to financial services.

Having spent years in Financial Technology for Foreign Exchange, we felt the urge to deliver our own "disruption", and every participant agrees that this market indeed needs change.

FX, the oldest and largest market in trade volumes, had all the time it needed to evolve. But being perpetually dominated by Banks with monopolistic tendencies and low tech-IQ, FX was kept in the dark ages. Imagine reams of trading tickets, dizzying number of redundant messages sent around the world, for what is actually the most simple model imaginable: change my $ for £.

FXCH is dragging FX, screaming and kicking, into the 21st century. We had no axe to grind, no consortium to please. Just efficiency, enhanced by the transparency of the BLOCKCHAIN.

If like us, you would like to participate in the disruption of the largest market in the world, I welcome your investment with Seedrs.com Equity Crowd Funding round. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
FM

OUR TECHNOLOGY: WHY THE BLOCKCHAIN CHANGES EVERYTHING

The Blockchain has caught the headlines consistently in our finance industry press for the past three years, to a point that many have already forgotten why this technology changes everything. Here is why at least for our Members:

The Blockchain allows writing data into a file in a way that can be cryptographically (think passworded) signed and thus guaranteed as original. Any attempt to alter it afterwards would reveal the cheat immediately. In addition, the propagation of that file to interested Users can also guarantee that every recipient possess an exact replica.

Applied to a Ledger of asset records, it is now possible to trace the movements of your currency balances for example and, provided you agree with each single entry, be certain that the result is “the truth”. FXCH can operate as a “truth register” of our Members currency assets offering unprecedented transparency with these Blockchain operations.

Blockchain is often associated with Bitcoin, its first use case. But Blockchain has already proven a game changer in many other applications, including in finance, the medical field and supply chain tracking. FXCH can be described as “proof of ownership” and the most powerful in nature when applied to the financial markets.

Tendermint is a leading Blockchain team of open source developers established several years ago in California by Jae Kwon and Ed Buchman.

The Core tools that they have put into the public domain are uniquely suited to design flexible business models like that of our Clearing house.
